Slumbering in the shadow of a 14th-century castle and enclosed by walls, the Jardin des Cinq Sens is designed to be experienced through sight, touch, sound, scent and (within reason!) taste. There's a maze, kids' activities, and more than 1300 plant species.

Closes an hour early in the first and last two weeks of its opening period; check the website.
